Museum beauties

A weekend with grandson always opens up the world just a little more. Lately we visited one of the local museums where you can try out everything hands on. We visited a similar museum in Copenhagen when daughter was young and loved it and have just been waiting for grandson to grow a little older so we could go.

I kept discovering all kinds of unexpected beauties like Wooden floors Nails Woven fabric strips Water Glass Pins And of course the champion of the wheel chair raceGreat fun even though we didn’t make it through half the exhibition; that’s what the next rip and the next trip and the next trip is for...

I used to love our children's museum here in Boston with my son, it was all hands on and so much to do. Not surprised you didn't make it through the whole museum. We never did either. They even had a recycle room 20years ago where you could fill a paper sack for $1 and pick out fro the bins whst you wanted. Maybe that's where it all started for me!! He is just so cute and a bit of devil mischief like his Nana...xox Corrine

so who am I?

My name is Nina Lise and I live in Norway where I share my life with my (incredible patient) husband, our daughter, two grandboys 9 and 5 (centre of the universe and masters of our house once a week and every other weekend), and an ever growing stash of fabric (lovingly referred to as “crap” by husband).
I have been quilting for 18 years, and it is consuming my time, my budget and large parts of both my brain and our house (hence the patient husband). I am pretty much a design-as-you-make-it-up quilter and enjoy the process even more than the finished project. I love playing with scraps of fabric and turning them into small, funny quilts. My first book was published in March 2012 and I also design patterns and teach classes.
